Rasa Sentosa Resort

Rasa Sentosa Resort

Location

Rasa Sentosa Resort, Singapore

Specifications

To provide a modular green wall system to enable vertical greening, both along the front pavement corridor and at the lobby of the beachfront resort hotel.

Solution

A stainless steel framework is constructed to enable the green wall at the lobby to tower beyond the height of the wall beside the staircase spiraling from the basement to the lobby at ground level. To allow adequate time for plant establishment, Vertical Greening Modules (VGMs), comprising a geotextile bag filled with soil-less lightweight planting media were pre-planted in a nursery environment about 8 to 12 weeks prior to installation. Metal support brackets are attached to the VGMs on-site enabling the them to be easily and firmly anchored to pilasters secured to the steel framework or directly to the wall. The Elmich modular green wall system allows easy mounting and dismounting of individual VGMs for maintenance or replacement whenever necessary.

 

Automated drip irrigation and fertilisation systems were installed for each of the walls.

 

The inviting living wall at the front corridor greet guests and visitors as they arrive at the resort and the towering green wall at the lobby sets the mood for a refreshing stay at Singapore’s only beachfront resort.

Marina Bay Financial Centre

Location

Marina Bay Financial Centre, SIngapore

Specifications

To provide strong and secure paver support to support heavy pre-cast concrete sections weighing up to 5 tonnes to be raised 900 mm off the base structure.

Solution

 Elmich Green Wall System, consisting of Vertical Greening Modules (VGMs) housing a geotextile bag containing soil-less lightweight planting media was specified for this project. Pre-planting of the VGMs was carried out at the nursery about 8 to 12 weeks before scheduled installation, allowing firm establishment and gradual vertical pre-orientation of specially selected indoor plants. On site, metal support brackets were attached to the modules to facilitate their mounting onto pilasters fastened to a steel framework.

 

A drip irrigation system is incorporated in the system and a drainage gully installed at the base of each wall to collect and channel excess water. Excess water is drained via a down pipe with connection to and linking the drainage gullies of all 8 levels.

 

Artificial lighting is provided above the walls to provide the plants with an adequate source of light to maintain healthy plant growth.

McDonald’s Jurong Central Park

Location

Jurong Central Park

Specifications

To provide the Green Roof system to facilitate planting on the mushroom-shaped concrete pitch roof of the McDonald’s restaurant at Jurong Central Park.

Solution

The steep gradient of the mushroom-shaped roof necessitated metal restraining barriers to be installed before VersiDrain® 25P drainage and water retention trays, cut to fit the individual compartments created by the restrainers, were positioned. A filter fabric is laid over the trays and a lightweight and primarily inorganic planting media placed on top for the planting of a carpet of pearl grass.

 

A network of cells in VersiDrain® 25P act as little reservoirs to retain water which is returned, via capillary action, to the planting media during dry spells, maintaining a healthy carpet of green over the eye-catching roof of the restaurant.

 

An automated irrigation system was incorporated on the roof for use during the initial plant establishment and to deliver regular irrigation when necessary.

 

The result is a refreshing carpet of green which blends unobtrusively into the green environment of the park.
